You might be able to explain to a Christian that someone they're defending actually said some bad things, you might be able to get them to admit that the person wasn't 100% holy. You might get them to imagine the person had ulterior motives. But you will never get them to notice that their allegiance to the Christian label was so great that it caused them to dismiss your concerns, which ended up being valid. You will never get them to notice that they privileged their own sense of affinity over your very visible frustration, fear, or revulsion. At best, this will be a one-off exception in their memory. Most likely, they will still be resentful of you for having gone through this conversation.
